Ice Ice Baby

An ice storm rolled into Texas this weekend and we got hit. School was cancelled Friday and luckily I'd been to Costco and Walmart earlier in the week so we just hunkered down and turned on the fireplace. But my snow-deprived children were determined to play in it despite the fact that it was freezing and completely ice. I caught them scraping the bottom of the slide and they explained "mom if we scrape really hard then it's almost like snow." After I finally got GG down for a nap I joined them outside as did Rob and we took turns sledding down the icy driveway on a pizza pan. When we couldn't feel our toes any longer it was back in the house for some hot chocolate and coloring of ornaments. We love snow/ice days!
